Commentary on Numbers 4:8
The scarlet covering over the table of showbread signifies both the dignity of this holy furniture and the blood sacrifice required for communion with God. The showbread represented God's continual provision and His presence dwelling among His people. Every detail of its transport was prescribed by God, teaching that approaching God's presence requires careful obedience to His commands. The Kohathites who carried these items served as mediators of holy things, foreshadowing Christ who is both the bread of life and our mediator.
